Dubya: Making terrorists over there, so we don't have to here

The negative reaction President Bush got Thursday in Brazil at the start of a weeklong visit to the region doesn't surprise experts in Latin American affairs. "There is an enormous rejection of U.S. foreign policy in the world," one said. Bush's arrival in Sao Paulo was preceded by street marches and clashes between protesters and police.

Bush... Making terrorists over there, so we don't have to make them here.

2. We don't want him.

Nor does the world. He sold world peace down the river for globalist corporate profit.

8. OK thanks.

I was thinking it might have translated to something else that started with 'F'.

6. Because my kids have to eat. I can't be out carrying signs every day

Really, March 17th is coming up fast. We have had our share of protests and more are coming. And there are dozens of small protests all the time you just don't see them on the news. We have one here every Saturday afternoon. It started out with 2 people, and as the months went by it got bigger and bigger. Now it's about 40 people every Saturday afternoon, on the same street corner. I get out there with them when I can. We do what we can. It's working too, slowly, but it's working.
